I look at the jewelry of the USSR and for half an hour I become young again, I remember the dresses with which I wore them. Bashny.Net

Jewelry of the USSR In the modern world, it is considered a relic of the past and a kind of tastelessness. Especially among young people. The younger generation complains that at one time there were no more than 3-4 large jewelry factories in the whole country, respectively, and the variety of jewelry models was not expected.



In fact, they're right about something. But still do not forget about the charisma and recognition of such a “jewelry”. After all, firstly, she had the highest quality of stone fastenings and their unique cut, because of which the jewelry gave a unique shine. And secondly, affordability. They could easily be purchased by any working person without incurring huge debts.

The vast majority of gold products had a 583-th sample and standard design. However, they did not disdain to use either fashionistas of that time, or even movie stars. Let's go back for a second and remember what models were in use and why we liked them so much.

Famous and very popular gypsy earrings, which are sometimes called "Cuckoos". They come with a thick, thin and openwork base. Some products, mainly remodels, were also produced with pendants. In the famous film “Elusive Avengers”, the character Yashka Gypsygan wore an earring from such a set.

A charming silver ring with gilding. Immediately striking non-standard design and bright colors of vintage products. In a special way, cut amethyst is sprayed with thousands of rays if you put it to the light. Not a very expensive gift to the lady of the heart for that time.

A very rare specimen of his time. Product of the Sverdlovsk jewelry factory. Used silver 875-th sample and insertion of natural large chalcedony. You can note the quality and accuracy of fastening at the then masters. It is not surprising that this position was issued in a limited edition. A real find.

Silver decoration with gilding and inserts of natural amber. In addition to the excellent work of the masters, it should be noted the fact that two identical drawings are impossible for products with such a model. Since amber itself is always distinguished by patterns on the surface. Stylish, natural and does not go out of fashion.

Make an unexpected accent for your style, play on nostalgia, or just "grow up chic." It doesn’t matter why you wear Soviet vintage. The main thing is to feel comfortable, have a sense of beauty and be able to combine things from different eras.
